Today we are announcing the general availability of AWS Outposts, a new fully managed service that extends AWS infrastructure, AWS services, APIs, and tools to virtually any customer datacenter, co-location space, or on-premises facility for a truly consistent hybrid experience. AWS Outposts is ideal for workloads that need low latency access to on-premises applications or systems, local data processing, or for local data storage needs.
You can now run HAQM EC2, HAQM EBS, container-based services such as HAQM ECS and HAQM EKS, database services such as HAQM RDS on AWS Outposts, and analytics services such as HAQM EMR locally on your Outposts. You can seamlessly connect to the broad range of services and tools available in the local AWS Region such as HAQM DynamoDB, AWS CloudFormation, HAQM CloudWatch, AWS CloudTrail, Elastic BeanStalk, Cloud 9, and others to run and manage workloads on Outposts the same way as you do in the cloud today.
To order your Outpost, you can log-in to the AWS Management Console and select from a range of pre-validated Outposts configurations offering a mix of HAQM EC2 and HAQM EBS capacity that best suits your application needs and site characteristics.
AWS Outposts infrastructure is delivered, installed, managed, and monitored by AWS, removing the need to manually administer, upgrade, and patch your on-premises infrastructure.
Starting today, AWS Outposts can be installed and operated in the following countries: United States of America, all EU countries, Switzerland, Norway, Australia, Japan, and South Korea.
